Welcome to my Blog page. If you are into Yummie creativeness then read on. I'm an artist, poet and Fun-arian. Mostly,I love painting. I work intuitively and very organically, allowing images to emerge from layers of colour and painted marks on the canvas. I also use a variety of tools or natural objects.

About Me

Emerging artist. I love creating any art that means I can play and paint with my hands and anything else that makes a mark on canvas. This includes mostly acrylic on canvas, pop up art and Mandala's. When I paint I connect with nature, Self, intuition.

I wrote this after being in hospital in Chicago. Keith took me to Fox River and then to an orchard

You come a long way on an aeroplaneYou see alot o' things in the slip streamAnd when you get to the place your goin'It's like a dream more than a knowin'

But when you lay back among the flowers on the grassYou see the frogs hoppin' andthe water dancin' pastA little ladybird jitter buggin' to therhythm of the crickets tune

Oh, the Fox River is the place to beAfter all that concrete in the cityBirds flyin' overheadSun shining down on me

All the medicine I needTo bring my spirit back to sanityA ukulele strummin' a sweet melodyRiver boats thrummin' in their bellies

It's a good life here for mePickin' fresh apples and rasberriesWatchin' the bees swing lazilyUnder the leaves of the fruit trees

Oh the Woodstock Orchard is the place to beAfter all that concrete in the cityBirds flyin' overheadSun shinin' down on me

Oh the sun shinin' down on meYeh the sun shinin down on meThe sun shinin' down on me

A song I wrote in Nov 2008

That pinging splashThat tinkling laughThat shower bathThey're all the same

That rushing creekThat book crit-icThat hydrant leakThey're all the same

And I can hear it running throughI feel the threadjust weaving throughCan you all hear it running throughThe whole of life?

Hear that hammer smashhear that drummers crashHear that rustling cashThey're all the same

Hear that thud of hoovesHear those party groovesHear that singers' bluesThey're all the same

Theres just one Universal soundExpressed and heard so differentlyJust like a tapestry in timeI hear it all through everythingCan you just hear it running throughThe whole of LifeThe whole of LifeCan you just feel it weaving throughthe whole of Life

Flower Mandala from my garden

Flower Mandala

My first mandala - 1990

coloured pencil, emboidery thread and beads, framed in a clock face

Three sisters Mandala

Last week, I went to sit under a huge Mulberry tree in Subiaco. To my suprise and delight there was a kookaburra sitting on a branch just a little more than an arms length away from me. We sat together for maybe 10 minutes and were then joined by two more kookaburra's. It was one of those special moments in time. Inspired, I painted this mandala originally with a gradation of white through to black, experimenting with light and then decided in the end to add the green leaves of the tree. It is framed in an old plastic clock face which I got at an op shop.
